The artist mixes a classic acoustic songwriter guitar over multi-ethnic samples. Tabla loop crossed by cinematic arpeggiators and strong synthesiser glides. Along with emotionally charged lyrics, the song emerges from the artist’s feelings, setting the pace for social change through personal transformation. The artist generates the melancholic mood of the lyrics by „swiping“ a listener from one reel to another, depicting the tragedy of modern life’s carousel. All of them twist together in a common thread dejected by the unstoppable marching of time and the rise of immense loneliness in society, with individuals performing a selfless and desperate monologue in front of a small pocket mirror.
Lyrics
Dig the well, dig it,
dig some more
you can’t hide it
100 years of solitude
How many knots to untie?
everything is misplaced
What word can cure it?
The plane begins to take off
No answers to find
The buzzing grows
and doesn’t stop
And a strong tremor
leaves your soul behind.
3 million hours go by
100 years of solitude.
Looking at the camera she
applying eyeliner
she smiles and sings,
a new brightness
and a new colour.
The algorithm doesn’t get
how much I missed you today
3 million hours go by
100 years of solitude.
You don’t need
what you need.
You don’t need
what you need.
You don’t need
what you need.
No…
3 million hours go by
100 years of solitude.
3 million hours go by
100 years of solitude.
And now your soul is an ad
And now your soul is an ad
And now your soul is an ad
And now your soul is an ad
And now your soul is an ad
And now your soul is an ad
And now your soul is an ad
And now your soul is an ad
